Rejecting "torch" but embracing "handheld photon emitter" is peak science communication! It's like how nobody says "salt" in the lab—it's sodium chloride, thank you very much. Scientists have this delightful habit of turning everyday objects into unnecessarily complex terminology. Why say "lightbulb" when you can say "incandescent illumination apparatus"? The fancy terminology makes us feel smarter, even when we're just looking for the flashlight during a power outage!
